Online casinos
for U.S. players facing economic challenge

Whether the U.S. economy is in a recession or not is a problem
left best to the experts, but all Americans are already feeling
the decline of their standard of life. And just as Americans are
cutting in on spending, the online casinos allowing U.S. players
are also feeling the punch, when their main customer base
decides to use the $100 bucks to fill up the tank rather than
gamble online. Despite the fact that when times get financially
tough, people find more incentive to gamble, numerous promoters
of online casinos serving the U.S. audience are posting on
industry forums, noting the slump decline in new players
generated through their U.S.-facing operations. Naturally, there
is a point when even gambling is not lucrative enough (let's
face it, most people gamble to win and the trill of gambling is
just gravy), especially when inflation is running amok. That
American players at the online casinos have less dispensable
income is clear, with some promoters reporting decline in new
sign-up as high as 5-6 times the normal rate.

So what is to be expected in the
upcoming weeks (or months if the U.S. economy continues do go
down the hill) in order for the online casinos still allowing
U.S. players to stay profitable and increase their player base?
First and foremost - increased bonus offers. Currently you can
find sign-up bonuses as high as
$500 or even
$555 on your first deposit, but
if the lack of new U.S. players remains, expect those bonus
offers for first time players to ante up as high as $1,000,
which has happened in the past. The Internet casinos will likely
also add new games, decrease cash-out/withdrawal requirements
and double the effort of finding new depositing methods - all
things beneficial for the players and gamblers.

Of course, there is the bad side of the
story and we are giving you the heads-up now, so you don't
regret it later. There will be a boom of what we call "online
casinos gone bad", online casinos that usually make enough
profit to play by the rules and still turn profit, but are just
one inch away from cutting their players' throats. Those online
casinos are usually small and less known in the online gambling
industry, signing up new U.S. players in numbers just enough to
keep them honest, but with the decrease of new American players,
those casinos will be the first to go belly up, stop paying out
winning, selling personal information and find any other
imaginable way to make money on the fly. To avoid those online
casinos make sure you do not jump on the first big bonus offer
you see or click on a flashy banner advertising online casinos
allowing U.S. players. If you decide to gamble online, always
make sure that the online casino you have chosen has been
recommended to you by a reputable website. Follow this simple
rule and if you are financially able - enjoy the future benefits
the online casinos will offer.
